    Hey guys,

    So I really like the headlights of the new 2013 Prius Five and Prius Plug In with the eyebrow LED lights... I wanted to get a set of those and throw them on my 2010 Prius IV. I know that they have the auto leveler and headlamp washers but I don't need those. Was wondering if I could just install these and plug and play or if there is more to it than that. I don't know how the eyebrow or the extra bulbs for the LED projectors would wire up, if they are different or the same or if I need to buy anything extra to run them. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

    I converted my Prius III to led headlights (per 2012 jdm led headlights) ... If you'll be able to get the conversion kit like I did its plug and play.. If not you have to do some minor rewiring. The 2013 led headlights are still expensive to get....

    I'm a fan of the new 2013 LED headlights, maybe I'll convert my LED lights to the newer ones :)

    While I like the LED parking lights, I'm not a fan of the squarish design of the 2012-13 LED headlights. The round design of the 2010-11 LED headlights looks significantly better IMO (in addition to having a blue housing vs. clear on the 2012-13 Five).

    Ohh I never noticed that they were square. I only saw the eyebrows lit late at night.

    Corrected. ;) Was it just a single lens then instead of the 2 lens US version?

    Check out After 1 year (JDM ZVW30 project).... Same as USDM 2010-11 LED headlights except with clear side reflectors.

    Sean (sfv41901) has the single lens JDM Prius G HID headlights and that's probably who you were thinking of.

    Okay, I see what you mean now. I saw some pics on the Toyota site. The area for the highbeam is now squared off vs round. The LED projectors themselves are still round.

    Yes, the 3 round design of the 2010-11 LED headlights coordinates together much better IMO.

    Yes, they will fit & yes they will work, but u either need to get the adapters like Bino posted or u can but the connectors & terminals from the deal.

    This will not be a cheap mod though......these lights are still very newon the market & expensive.
